another shed thread

OK, so my 1 year old male bp Peyton is in his shed cycle and I have a few questions (since this is his first shed for me)...

Do they shed head to tail?

Does it normally kinda roll off??? Kinda like if you rolled your sock down? Ya know what I mean?

His eyes were cloudy/blueish a few days ago and today is the first time I've seen him since - now his eyes are nice and clear and his head has no stuck shed or anything which I can only assume is great!

His shed is I guess you could say is rolled down to about around his waist if he had a waist...hehehe

Is that normal?

Thanks in advance!!!!!

Hopefully I can answer your questions. :)

Always... unless it's a stuck shed. But everything should come off.

Yep. I would probably put a different analogy, but this is a family friendly site. ;)

Sounds good. He should shed any day now!

Um... so he's already shedding and his rolled shed is halfway down? Shouldn't be much longer until he gets it all the way off, then.

Check out this link for more info on the shedding process. :)

I just checked on him again - It's all off!!! Yeah! Perfect shed. I took the shedded skin out of the tank and he was out roaming around. He looks BEAUTIFUL! Can I feed him tonight or should I wait? He missed his regular feeding on Sunday.

You could feed him tonight or wait till the next feed; its up to you. Time for some pics!

Perfect shed. I alway check the shed by unrolling it to make sure both eye caps came off with the shed.

It alway makes you feel good to get a shed like that, you know your doing something right.:banana:

My thoughts exactly!!! :D

I was thrilled about the shed. That's not silly is it? :P

Not silly at all.

...usually mine poo in their sheds just to top it off! :P Looks like you haven't got to experience that yet! :D
